Heritage listing

Trewan Hall (pronounced Trew-an) is a historic manor house in the parish of St Columb Major, Cornwall, England, UK. The surviving Jacobean style manor house is located one mile north of the town. It was the ancestral estate of the Vivian family (later Vyvyan, when a Vivian daughter married a distant cousin with varied spelling) for over 300 years, until it was sold in 1920. The house and gardens, which now includes campsite grounds, has been privately owned by its current owners since 1960.

Background

Description

The existing main house dates from circa 1633, and was built by the Vivian family as a replacement for the former manor house at Trenoweth (now Higher Trenoweth Farm), a short distance from Trewan. The building is a Grade II* Listed structure. Its origins are in the 15th century, but most of the fabric dates from 1635 onwards (a fireplace is inscribed with this year). Further alterations were executed in the late 19th century including a number of Gothic Revival windows added in the perpendicular style.
